Researcher, Paléaoanthropologie, CIRB, Collège de France
Karen Ruebens received her PhD from the University of Southampton (UK) in 2013 and has since been working as a postdoctoral researcher, first at the MONREPOS Archaeological Research Centre for Human Behavioural Evolution (Neuwied) and then at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology (MPI-EVA, Leipzig). Her research interests are focused on unravelling Neanderthal behaviour through wider-scale comparative lithic and faunal analyses, most recently including Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry (ZooMS). At the Collège de France Karen will be conducting ZooMS analysis of faunal assemblages from key late Middle and early Upper Palaeolithic sites. Her ongoing ZooMS projects include Salzgitter-Lebenstedt (Mousterian), Ranis (Lincombian-Ranisian-Jerzmanowician), Cassenade and Saint-Césaire (Châtelperronian).

Ses intérêts de recherche se concentrent sur l'élucidation du comportement des Néandertaliens grâce à des analyses lithiques et fauniques comparatives à plus grande échelle, dont plus récemment la zooarchéologie par spectrométrie de masse (ZooMS). Au Collège de France, Karen effectuera une analyse ZooMS des assemblages fauniques des principaux sites du Paléolithique moyen et supérieur. Ses projets ZooMS en cours incluent Salzgitter-Lebenstedt (Moustérien), Ranis (Lincombien-Ranisien-Jerzmanowicien), Cassenade et Saint-Césaire (Châtelperronien).
